As then the Tulip for her morning sup,
Of Heav'nly vintage from the soil looks up,
Do you devoutly do the like
Till Heaven to earth invert you like and empty cup.
So when that Angel of the darker drink,
At last shall find you by the river brink,
And offering his cup invite your Soul
Forth to your lips to quaff - you shall not shrink.

As then the Tulip
As then the Tulip for her morning sup,
Of Heav'nly vintage from the soil looks up,
Do you devoutly do the like
Till Heaven to earth invert you like and empty cup.
So when that Angel of the darker drink,
At last shall find you by the river brink,
And offering his cup invite your Soul
Forth to your lips to quaff - you shall not shrink.
